ALTWL is Finished

It's always so exciting to put the last stitch in a project - especially when it's been such a long time since the first stitch was done.
This is stitched on white 18 count aida but for some reason this photo has turned the fabric to a light blue color.
I am so thrilled about this finish that my mind is completely blank about what my next cross stitch project will be.
I think I will catch up on my house work and enjoy the excitement of this long awaited finish before I puzzle over what to do next.

Free Chart US Capitol

Here is the chart that I made to use in my Washington DC square for the America Land That We Love wip that I am working on.
As I look at the stitched square I think the capitol building could have been a little smaller to fit in the square better.  I have decided to  move on and see if it grows on me before the rest of the wip is finished.

I am not sure how or if the chart can be printed from this blog.  It's such a small chart I don't think it would take too long to draw it on some graph paper if it can't be printed directly from here.

ALTWL WIP

Yay, I have finished all 50 states! 
I changed the rightmost square on the bottom row to a Washington DC square.  I think I will put a flag in the leftmost square on the bottom row with my initials and the year.
All that's left will then be "Land that we love" on the very last row.
It's time to start thinking about what my next cross stitch project will be.

America Land That We Love WIP

I have been so busy stitching this WIP that time has gotten away from me.  I was stitching Michigan the last time I took a picture which was posted over a year ago (May 23, 2014).  When I finish the row I am stitching there are only 4 more states to stitch on the final row.  This pattern by Jean Farish is available in her Etsy shop (CLICK HERE) for a pdf download of the pattern.
